OSCE MG: ARMENIAN, AZERI PRESIDENT APPRECIATED ST. PETERSBURG MEETING
- OSCE Minsk Group Co-chairs Matthew Bryza (U.S.), Bernard Fassier (France) and Yuri Merzlyakov (Russia) have finalized their visit to Azerbaijan. “An agreement to continue talks on the basis of Madrid proposals was achieved,” Ambassador Merzlyakov said. He reminded that two weeks have passed since the St. Petersburg meeting between the Armenian and Azerbaijani Presidents and said the co-chairs try not to lose the time. For his part, Amb. Fassier said the co-chairs didn’t submit any new proposals. “We are trying to clarify some provisions of Madrid proposals and introduce some amendments to improve them. The presidents appreciated their meeting in St. Petersburg as positive and constructive. Our meetings in Azerbaijan were also positive and constructive, but we have huge work ahead”. Commenting on the visit, U.S. Co-chair Matt Bryza said, “We will leave for Yerevan and then for Stepanakert. Essentially we will learn Yerevan’s attitude about Madrid proposals. This visit is not different from previous ones. Simply, it is our first visit to the region after the presidential meeting in St. Petersburg. The Presidents should keep intercourse with each other but first the Foreign Ministers should meet to coordinate some issues,” the Azeri Press Agency reports.
